Self-tuning piano
I somehow can't see folks rushing out to order one, but interesting nevertheless - the detailed photos especially.

I was playing the piano in a zoo, when the elephant burst into tears. I said, "Don't you recognize the tune?" He replied, "No, I recognize the ivories!"

Re: Self-tuning piano
There is a vidoe from a link on here some time back of that. It showed itworking. It tuned every time you turned it on by heating up the strings via the wrest pin. Clever idea but dont think it has any legs.

They guy has been working on it for years It works but it still need a master tuning each year its not there to replace the tuner its there manly to keep unison in
The Big draw back is it keep heating up the strings after time the string will go dull Story and Clark made some piano with it in a few years ago Not shour what the take up was
